When your baby up and leaves you    Up and leaves you flat    Don't you laugh my friend sometimes it happens just like that    First you feel the anger then the sorrow will soon take control    And there'll be hard times for sure    Long cold lonely nights       It might not sound like much    But it'll mean a lot you'll see    Every hour you survive will come to be    A little victory    Little victory       As you struggle through each day    Each strange new day    Feelin' lost and wounded tryin' hard to find your way    No one there to talk it out with    Learnin' how to sleep alone    Overcomin' each new doubt    Tryin' hard just to accept it all       Everytime you keep control when you're cut off at the knees    Everytime you take a punch and still stand at ease    Little victories    Little victories       And when night falls and there's no one around    The cruelest time of all and not one sound    Listenin' to the wind blow    Listenin' to the tickin' of the clock    Tryin' hard to forget    Tryin' hard to just accept it all       As you step out in the night take a lesson from the trees    Watch the way they learn to bend with each breeze    Little victories    Everytime you make it through    It's another little victory    Day by day minute by minute    Little victories
